Still have that frame, and the gold chain, they are just sitting around in the parts bin, don't have the wheel anymore tho.

Is that one of those Swiss Titan frames?

haaa. yea. i'd bet this was done pretty much daily between 2007 and 2011.

i'll have to take a built up picture of the second one. but here are my two (there'll be a third modeled after the green one soon):

Long gone, but oh so fun!

Here's my strong. Flip-flop hub and single speed on the other side so brakes front and back and it now wears a black seat instead of red.

Just took this one out on Sunday, sadly it rarely gets ridden...

I had one that I rode as a fixed gear winter training bike for years. It was a great bike but the frame cracked at the BB. Different, but also had an interesting paint job like most of those did. Those were a great find back in the day.

Here's mine, in its natural habitat.

Already posted this one in an older thread, but it counts so:
